Today's and tomorrow's advent cards all have to do with visiting family. Last night we camped out under the tree. And when I say "we" I mean the kids. I slept in my bed just around the corner. The kids have been counting down the days and now the final hours until Christmas morning. I know they are excited for the gifts, they are children. But I hope that in time the emphasis on the presents will fade and the special gift of Jesus born on the silent night so long ago will bring them even greater joy.
